OERxDomains 21: Call for Proposals now open [1]
OERxDomains Conference
Online - 21-22 April 2021
Organised by the Association for Learning Technology and partnership with Reclaim Hosting’s Domains Conference, this special edition of the much loved event is the 12th annual conference for Open Education research, practice and policy. We are proud to incorporate a special strand hosted by the Domains Conference - bringing our two communities closer together in 2021.
Meet the Co-Chair Team
To make this special edition of the event happen, we have a team of Co-Chairs: Heading up the Domains strand are Lauren (Brumfield) Hanks and Jim Groom and leading on the OER side are Lou Mycroft, Louise Drumm and Joe Wilson.
Join the Conference Committee
We are keeping the invitation to join this conference committee open until 21 December 2021. Sign up here [2] to get involved. If you have previously signed up for the OER21 Conference Committee, you’ll already be on the list.
Explore the 2021 Conference Themes
The conference will put the spotlight on both the value and limitations of Open Education in a (post)pandemic world. We are particularly keen to hear from people who have an interest in the following indicative areas of practice:
-
Theme 1: Openness, care, and joy in the times of pandemic;
-
Theme 2: Open Education responses to surveillance technologies and data ownership in education;
-
Theme 3: Open in Action: open teaching, educational practices and resources, how you might be using Domains and other tools;
-
Theme 4: Shifts in agency and creativity as empowerment of learners and educators;
-
Theme 5: Open Source Tools: infrastructure, cloud environments, targeted teaching tools.
Wildcard proposals that specifically address the conference themes in relation to open practice, research and policy are also welcome.
